I haven't gotten sick much since I've lived in Arkansas. I had a mild cold a year or so ago, and then I had some kind of 24 hour bug that I picked up from coworkers a couple of years ago, but that's about it. In Colorado, I used to get sick with some regularity, and it was never simple. I was plagued with respiratory infections, sinus and ear infections, bronchitis and pneumonia, and the occasional asthma attack. Same in Georgia. I haven't even really shown any signs of allergies here either. Healthwise, this area really seems to agree with me
No, we're talking about maybe 10 years ago....I had no clue they had pneumonia...I just thought they had a cold. I never realized how sick they were; that had never happened before....I've always been right on top of it and brought them to the doc right away.
Lots of people get sick in Colorado....lots of people get allergies there, when they never had when they lived elsewhere. I was told that Colorado brought in lots of non-native vegetation....and that is the culprit.

.....Westy......

But..................your teeth are YELLOW!!!
Well, the dryness there created a lot of problems for me too. I didn't test positive for more than some of the standard allergens (ragweed, dust, spruce, Cottonwood), but the problem was that what would start out as an allergic reaction or even a mild cold, quickly migrated to my lungs, and I never threw these things off quickly, either. Sometimes I would be sick for weeks.
My older daughter would start out with allergies and then it would always become a sinus infection...poor thing. She was miserable. Then the youngest one started to get allergies....I never did (and I'm SO glad).
.....Westy......
Night y'all. I'm going to try and go to bed too. Hopefully I will be able to sleep. Sweet dreams.
I thought it was Libby's cousins. (Red hair & short)...
sleep well, my friend!
night, westy
have a good rest westy !:)
So, did you watch Ya Ya Sisterhood, by any chance?
I watched some of it I wanted to see the new show on Numbers and how it solved crime!
I really like James Garned and Sandra Bullock father had a studio in the building I live he taught voice and she also lived there for a while they are from the south!
Secret Unit Expands Rumsfeld's Domain
New Espionage Branch Delving Into CIA Territory
By Barton Gellman

The Pentagon, expanding into the CIA's historic bailiwick, has created a new espionage arm and is reinterpreting U.S. law to give Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld broad authority over clandestine operations abroad, according to interviews with participants and documents obtained by The Washington Post.
The previously undisclosed organization, called the Strategic Support Branch, arose from Rumsfeld's written order to end his "near total dependence on CIA" for what is known as human intelligence. Designed to operate without detection and under the defense secretary's direct control, the Strategic Support Branch deploys small teams of case officers, linguists, interrogators and technical specialists alongside newly empowered special operations forces
The Strategic Support Branch was created to provide Rumsfeld with independent tools for the "full spectrum of humint operations," according to an internal account of its origin and mission. Human intelligence operations, a term used in counterpoint to technical means such as satellite photography, range from interrogation of prisoners and scouting of targets in wartime to the peacetime recruitment of foreign spies. A recent Pentagon memo states that recruited agents may include "notorious figures" whose links to the U.S. government would be embarrassing if disclosed. CON'T.......
